In view of the recent experimental developments on the experimental side in the $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ decay, and the fact that the Particle Data Group in the on line edition of 2007 reports sizable changes of the radiative decay…
The decay $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ is discussed in the framework of SU(3) chiral perturbation theory. The process is dominated by the ${\cal{O}}(p^6)$ in the momentum expansion where tree-level amplitudes from the effective Lagrangian…
Based on a sample of 1.31 billion $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a search for the rare decay $\eta'\rightarrow 4\pi^{0}$ via $J/\psi\rightarrow\gamma\eta'$. No significant $\eta'$ signal is observed in the…

The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in the pi0 pi0 invariant mass distribution of K+ --> pi0 pi0 pi+ decays. As originally pointed out by Cabibbo, an accurate measurement of the cusp may allow one to pin down the S-wave…
Isospin violating hadronic decays of the \eta and \eta' mesons into 3\pi mesons are driven by a term in the QCD Lagrangian proportional to the mass difference of the d and u quarks. The source giving large yield of the mesons for such decay…

We consider the rare decay $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ and calculate the non-resonant contribution to the amplitude to one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We display our result as both a diphoton energy spectrum and a partial decay…
The branching fraction of the decay $\eta' \to \pi\rho$ is calculated in the chiral quark NJL model. The decay exists due to the mass difference between $u$- and $d$-quarks leading to $\pi^{0}-\eta^{'}$ mixing. Two different approaches are…
It is shown in the work of one of the authors in 1979 (MKV) that the contribution to the amplitude of this decay from diagrams with one baryon loop is equal to zero and contributions from diagrams with meson loops appear very small.…
The strength of the interaction of three pions and a photon, $F_{3\pi}$ is predicted by the axial anomaly in terms of the pion decay constant, a relation that is frequently used to constrain low-energy radiative processes involving pions,…
In the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory including photons, we found that the contribution of the photon exchange between two intermediate charged Kaons to the slope parameter of the decay (\eta\rightarrow 3\pi^{0}) amounts to…
The branching fractions of the axial vector meson decays $f_1 \to a_0 \pi,\pi\pi\eta$, $f_1 \to \rho \pi,\pi\pi\pi$ and $f_1 \to KK\pi$ are calculated in the standard $U(3) \times U(3)$ quark NJL model. The intermediate channels with the…
The decays of non-strange negative parity baryons via the emission of single $\pi$ and $\eta$ mesons are analyzed in the framework of the $1/N_c$ expansion. A basis of spin-flavor operators for the partial wave amplitudes is established to…

We study the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing up to next-to-next-to-leading-order in $U(3)$ chiral perturbation theory in the light of recent lattice simulations and phenomenological inputs. A general treatment for the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing at higher…
